How to set Radio Button Colors [duplicate] - html

I mean, a radio button itself consists of a round shape and a dot at the center (when the button is selected). What I want to change is the color of both. Can this be done using CSS?

A quick fix would be to overlay the radio button input style using :after, however it's probably a better practice to create your own custom toolkit.
input[type='radio']:after {
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
top: -2px;
left: -1px;
position: relative;
background-color: #d1d3d1;
content: '';
display: inline-block;
visibility: visible;
border: 2px solid white;
}
input[type='radio']:checked:after {
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
top: -2px;
left: -1px;
position: relative;
background-color: #ffa500;
content: '';
display: inline-block;
visibility: visible;
border: 2px solid white;
}
<input type='radio' name="gender"/>
<input type='radio' name="gender"/>

A radio button is a native element specific to each OS/browser. There is no way to change its color/style, unless you want to implement custom images or use a custom Javascript library which includes images (e.g. this - cached link)

As Fred mentioned, there is no way to natively style radio buttons in regards to color, size, etcc. But you can use CSS Pseudo elements to setup an impostor of any given radio button, and style it. Touching on what JamieD said, on how we can use the :after Pseudo element, you can use both :before and :after to achieve a desirable look.
Benefits of this approach:
Style your radio button and also Include a label for content.
Change the outer rim color and/or checked circle to any color you like.
Give it a transparent look with modifications to background color property and/or optional use of the opacity property.
Scale the size of your radio button.
Add various drop shadow properties such as CSS drop shadow inset where needed.
Blend this simple CSS/HTML trick into various Grid systems, such as Bootstrap 3.3.6, so it matches the rest of your Bootstrap components visually.
Explanation of short demo below:
Set up a relative in-line block for each radio button
Hide the native radio button sense there is no way to style it directly.
Style and align the label
Rebuilding CSS content on the :before Pseudo-element to do 2 things - style the outer rim of the radio button and set element to appear first (left of label content). You can learn basic steps on Pseudo-elements here - http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_pseudo_elements.asp
If the radio button is checked, request for label to display CSS content (the styled dot in the radio button) afterwards.
The HTML
<div class="radio-item">
<input type="radio" id="ritema" name="ritem" value="ropt1">
<label for="ritema">Option 1</label>
</div>
<div class="radio-item">
<input type="radio" id="ritemb" name="ritem" value="ropt2">
<label for="ritemb">Option 2</label>
</div>
The CSS
.radio-item {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 0 6px;
margin: 10px 0 0;
}
.radio-item input[type='radio'] {
display: none;
}
.radio-item label {
color: #666;
font-weight: normal;
}
.radio-item label:before {
content: " ";
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
top: 5px;
margin: 0 5px 0 0;
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
border-radius: 11px;
border: 2px solid #004c97;
background-color: transparent;
}
.radio-item input[type=radio]:checked + label:after {
border-radius: 11px;
width: 12px;
height: 12px;
position: absolute;
top: 9px;
left: 10px;
content: " ";
display: block;
background: #004c97;
}
A short demo to see it in action
In conclusion, no JavaScript, images or batteries required. Pure CSS.

You can use the CSS accent-color property to change the color.
input[type='radio'] {
accent-color: #232323;
}
It works with Chrome/Edge 93+, Firefox 92+, and Safari 15.4+ (Browser support info from caniuse.)

You can achieve customized radio buttons in two pure CSS ways
Via removing standard appearance using CSS appearance and applying custom appearance. Unfortunately this was doesn't work in IE. Demo:
input[type="radio"] {
/* remove standard background appearance */
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
/* create custom radiobutton appearance */
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
padding: 6px;
/* background-color only for content */
background-clip: content-box;
border: 2px solid #bbbbbb;
background-color: #e7e6e7;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* appearance for checked radiobutton */
input[type="radio"]:checked {
background-color: #93e026;
}
/* optional styles, I'm using this for centering radiobuttons */
.flex {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio1" />
<label for="radio1">RadioButton1</label>
</div>
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio2" />
<label for="radio2">RadioButton2</label>
</div>
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio3" />
<label for="radio3">RadioButton3</label>
</div>
Via hiding radiobutton and setting custom radiobutton appearance to label's pseudoselector. By the way no need for absolute positioning here (I see absolute positioning in most demos). Demo:
*,
*:before,
*:after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
input[type="radio"] {
display: none;
}
input[type="radio"]+label:before {
content: "";
/* create custom radiobutton appearance */
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
padding: 6px;
margin-right: 3px;
/* background-color only for content */
background-clip: content-box;
border: 2px solid #bbbbbb;
background-color: #e7e6e7;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* appearance for checked radiobutton */
input[type="radio"]:checked + label:before {
background-color: #93e026;
}
/* optional styles, I'm using this for centering radiobuttons */
label {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio1" />
<label for="radio1">RadioButton1</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio2" />
<label for="radio2">RadioButton2</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio3" />
<label for="radio3">RadioButton3</label>

Only if you are targeting webkit-based browsers (Chrome and Safari, maybe you are developing a Chrome WebApp, who knows...), you can use the following:
input[type='radio'] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
And then style it as if it were a simple HTML element, for example applying a background image.
Use input[type='radio']:active for when the input is selected, to provide the alternate graphics
Update: As of 2018 you can add the following to support multiple browser vendors:
input[type="radio"] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
}

Try something like this:
#yes{
border:2px solid white;
box-shadow:0 0 0 1px #392;
appearance:none;
border-radius:50%;
width:12px;
height:12px;
background-color:#fff;
transition:all ease-in 0.2s;
}
#yes:checked{
background-color:#392;
}
#no{
border:2px solid white;
box-shadow:0 0 0 1px #932;
appearance:none;
border-radius:50%;
width:12px;
height:12px;
background-color:#fff;
transition:all ease-in 0.2s;
}
#no:checked{
background-color:#932;
}
<input id="yes" type="radio" name="s"><label for="yes">Yes</label></br>
<input id="no" type="radio" name="s"><label for="no">No</label>
There is less of code, it looks better and you don't need to play with :before , :after and position to reach the effect.

you can use the checkbox hack as explained in css tricks
http://css-tricks.com/the-checkbox-hack/
working example of radio button:
http://codepen.io/Angelata/pen/Eypnq
input[type=radio]:checked ~ .check {}
input[type=radio]:checked ~ .check .inside{}
Works in IE9+, Firefox 3.5+, Safari 1.3+, Opera 6+, Chrome anything.

simple cross browser custom radio button example for you
.checkbox input{
display: none;
}
.checkbox input:checked + label{
color: #16B67F;
}
.checkbox input:checked + label i{
background-image: url('http://kuzroman.com/images/jswiddler/radio-button.svg');
}
.checkbox label i{

Well to create extra elements we can use :after, :before (so we don’t have to change the HTML that much). Then for radio buttons and checkboxes we can use :checked. There are a few other pseudo elements we can use as well (such as :hover). Using a mixture of these we can create some pretty cool custom forms. check this

I builded another fork of #klewis' code sample to demonstrate some playing with pure css and gradients by using :before/:after pseudo elements and a hidden radio input button.
HTML:
sample radio buttons:
<div style="background:lightgrey;">
<span class="radio-item">

</span>
<span class="radio-item">
<input type="radio" id="ritemb" name="ritem" class="false" value="ropt2">
<label for="ritemb">False</label>
</span>

For those who prefer to start development with a minimal example, here's a simple custom radio button that doesn't depend on label:
[type="radio"] {
visibility: hidden; /* hide default radio button */
/* you may need to adjust margin here, too */
}
[type="radio"]::before { /* create pseudoelement */
border: 2px solid gray; /* thickness, style, color */
height: .9em; /* height adjusts with font */
width: .9em; /* width adjusts with font */
border-radius: 50%; /* make it round */
display: block; /* or flex or inline-block */
content: " "; /* won't display without this */
cursor: pointer; /* appears clickable to mouse users */
visibility: visible; /* reverse the 'hidden' above */
}
[type="radio"]:checked::before { /* selected */
/* add middle dot when selected */
/* slightly bigger second value makes it smooth */
/* even more (e.g., 20% 50%) would make it fuzzy */
background: radial-gradient(gray 36%, transparent 38%);
}
<br>
<input type="radio" name="example" id="one" value="one">
<label for="one">one</label>
<br>
<br>
<input type="radio" name="example" id="two" value="two">
<label for="two">two</label>

Try this css with transition:
Demo
$DarkBrown: #292321;
$Orange: #CC3300;
div {
margin:0 0 0.75em 0;
}
input[type="radio"] {
display:none;
}
input[type="radio"] + label {
color: $DarkBrown;
font-family:Arial, sans-serif;
font-size:14px;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span {
display:inline-block;
width:19px;
height:19px;
margin:-1px 4px 0 0;
vertical-align:middle;
cursor:pointer;
-moz-border-radius: 50%;
border-radius: 50%;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span {
background-color:$DarkBrown;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked + label span{
background-color:$Orange;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span,
input[type="radio"]:checked + label span {
-webkit-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
-o-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
-moz-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
}
Html :

<input type="radio" id="radio01" name="radio" />
<label for="radio01"><span></span>Radio Button 1</label>

<div>
<input type="radio" id="radio02" name="radio" />
<label for="radio02"><span></span>Radio Button 2</label>

Simple , you can be used accent-color
View page source
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">

}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<label for="css">Are you like to css</label>
<input type="radio" id="css" value="css">
</body>
</html>

You should use the accent-color CSS property, which sets the accent color for user-interface controls such as inputs (radio buttons, checkboxes...) or progress bars and it's supported for most modern browsers.
input {
accent-color: red;
}
document.querySelector("input[name=accent-color]").addEventListener("input", () => {
document.documentElement.style.setProperty("--accent-color", event.target.value);
});
:root {
--accent-color: red;
}
input,
progress {
accent-color: var(--accent-color);
}
/* Other styles */
label {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
gap: .625rem;
margin-bottom: .625rem;
}
label:first-child {
font-size: 1.15rem;
font-weight: bold;
}
input {
flex: 0 0 auto;
height: 1.25rem;
width: 1.25rem;
}
input[type="color"] {
width: 3rem;
}
input[type="range"] {
width: 12.5rem;
}
<label>Change the accent color<input name="accent-color" type="color" value="#ff0000"></input></label><br>
<label><input name="radio" type="radio" checked></input>Radio button</label>
<label><input name="radio" type="radio"></input>Another radio button</label>
<label><input name="check" type="checkbox" checked></input>Checkbox</label>
<label><input name="range" type="range"></input>Range input</label>
<label><progress value="50" max="100"></progress>Progress bar</label>

This is not possible by native CSS. You'll have to use background images and some javascript tricks.

As other said, there's no way to achieve this in all browser, so best way of doing so crossbrowser is using javascript unobtrusively. Basically you have to turn your radiobutton into links (fully customizable via CSS). each click on link will be bound to the related radiobox, toggling his state and all the others.

For my use all I wanted to do was change the colour and nothing else, so I've taken the answer from #klewis and changed it to...
Make the radio the same as the browser default (Chrome in my case) using relative % and em instead of fixed px. Caveat: em is based on whatever the font-size of input[type=radio] is, which could be inherited. Adjustments to the values below may be necessary.
Keep accessibility functions (like an outline when focused) of the original radio button by not using display: none; and by applying :before and :after to the original radio instead of the label.
/* make default radio 'invisible' */
input[type=radio] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
}
/* make new radio outer circle */
input[type=radio]:before {
content: " ";
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
width: 0.8em;
height: 0.8em;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 1px solid grey;
background-color: transparent;
}
/* change colour of radio outer circle when checked */
input[type=radio]:checked:before {
border-color: green;
}
/* make new radio inner circle when checked */
input[type=radio]:checked:after {
content: " ";
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 0.55em;
height: 0.55em;
border-radius: 50%;
top: 0.4em;
left: 0.13em;
background: green;
}
`

This Worked for me well,
Simply add css attribute:
input[type="radio"]{accent-color: red;}
Here is the link for resource

The simple way is to use accent-color
The accent-color CSS property sets the accent color for user-interface controls generated by some elements
Browsers that support accent-color currently apply it to the following HTML elements:
<input type="checkbox">
<input type="radio">
<input type="range">
<progress>

You can use accent-color property in css to change background color of both checkbox and radio buttons.
input[type=radio] {
accent-color: red;
}

It may be helpful to bind radio-button to styled label. Futher details in this answer.

A clever way to do it would be to create a separate div with a height and width of -for example- 50px and then a radius of 50px lay this over your radio buttons...

You can embed a span element in the radio input then select a color of your choice to be rendered when a radio input is checked. Check out the example below sourced from w3schools.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
/* The container */
.container {
display: block;
position: relative;
padding-left: 35px;
margin-bottom: 12px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 22px;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
/* Hide the browser's default radio button */
.container input {
position: absolute;
opacity: 0;
cursor: pointer;
}
/* Create a custom radio button */
.checkmark {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 25px;
width: 25px;
background-color: #eee;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* On mouse-over, add a grey background color */
.container:hover input ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #ccc;
}
/* When the radio button is checked, add a blue background */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #00a80e;
}
/* Create the indicator (the dot/circle - hidden when not checked) */
.checkmark:after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
display: none;
}
/* Show the indicator (dot/circle) when checked */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark:after {
display: block;
}
/* Style the indicator (dot/circle) */
.container .checkmark:after {
top: 9px;
left: 9px;
width: 8px;
height: 8px;
border-radius: 50%;
background: white;
}
</style>
<body>
<h1>Custom Radio Buttons</h1>
<label class="container">One

Changing the background color at this code segment below does the trick.
/* When the radio button is checked, add a blue background */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #00a80e;
}
Sourced from how to create a custom radio button

If you are using react bootstrap Form.check you could do something like this
HTML
<Form.Check
type="radio"
id="Radio-card"
label={`check me out`}
name="paymentmethod"
value="card"
/>
SCSS
.form-check {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
input[type="radio"] {
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
width: 11px;
height: 11px;
padding: 1px;
background-clip: content-box;
border: 1px solid hotpink;
background-color: white;
border-radius: 50%;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked {
outline: none;
background-color: hotpink;
border: 1px solid hotpink;
}
label {
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 600;
}
}

I changed the color and size of radio buttons. Try This
.radio-tile-group {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
.radio-tile-group .input-container {
position: relative;
margin: 0.9rem;
}
.radio-tile-group .input-container .radio-button {
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
cursor: pointer;
}
.radio-tile {

<div class="radio-tile-edit" style="background-color: #757575;">

</div>

A simple fix would be to use the following CSS property.
input[type=radio]:checked{
background: \*colour*\;
border-radius: 15px;
border: 4px solid #dfdfdf;
}

Why is my other checkbox panel going missing in this weird custom checkbox issue?

The fiddle is here.
Should be like this, in essence.
But in my custom checkbox, as you'll see in fiddle, it shows like this.
Note there are two inputs in checkgroup before a label

}

Here's the principle:

align-items: center;
cursor: pointer;
}
.checkGroup [type=checkbox] {
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
}
cbox-image {

width: 1em;
margin: 0 .35em;
display: inline-flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
border: 2px solid #eee;
border-radius: 5px;
}
.checkGroup input:checked + cbox-image:after,
.checkGroup input + cbox-image + cbox-image:after { /* checked state */
content: '✔';
position: absolute;
font-size: 1.4em;
line-height: 0.8;
color: #09ad7e;
font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}
.checkGroup input:checked + cbox-image + cbox-image:after,
.checkGroup input:not(:checked) + cbox-image:after { /* unchecked state */
content: none;
}
<label class="checkGroup">
<input type="checkbox" value="Turkey">
<cbox-image></cbox-image>
<cbox-image></cbox-image> Turkey
</label>
From your comments and chats, clicking <label> should not trigger any checkbox clicks.
Therefore your original CSS is basically useless because:
You have only 1 label for 2 checkboxes.
All your CSS is styling the 1 label as if there is 2 labels.
For example, this line:
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked)+label,
[type="checkbox"]:checked+label {
...
}
Does nothing because there isn't enough label available for one of those [type="checkbox"], other than the fact that they are overriding each other.
Besides, your CSS code contains a lot of self-overriding CSS similar to:
[type="checkbox"]:not(:checked), [type="checkbox"]:checked {...}
Where two opposite states use the same styling. It can be simplified to just
[type="checkbox"] {...}
Suggested Solution
You can transfer most styling from label to the [type="checkbox"] and [type="checkbox"]:checked::after.
Check this fiddle.
Not exactly what you asked for, but I'm sure you can tweak it yourself.

Space out and replace radio buttons with images in boostrap [duplicate]

If I have a radio group with buttons:
... how can I show only images in the select option instead of the buttons, e.g.
Wrap radio and image in <label>
Hide radio button (Don't use display:none or visibility:hidden since such will impact accessibility)
Target the image next to the hidden radio using Adjacent sibling selector +
Don’t forget to provide alternative text in the alt attribute, especially since it functions as the radio button’s label
/* HIDE RADIO */
[type=radio] {
position: absolute;
opacity: 0;
width: 0;
height: 0;
}
/* IMAGE STYLES */
[type=radio] + img {
cursor: pointer;
}
/* CHECKED STYLES */
[type=radio]:checked + img {
outline: 2px solid #f00;
}
<label>
<input type="radio" name="test" value="small" checked>
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/40x60/0bf/fff&text=A" alt="Option 1">
</label>
<label>
<input type="radio" name="test" value="big">
<img src="https://via.placeholder.com/40x60/b0f/fff&text=B" alt="Option 2">
</label>
Don't forget to add a class to your labels and in CSS use that class instead.
Custom styles and animations
Here's an advanced version using the <i> element and the ::after pseudo-element:
body{color:#444;font:100%/1.4 sans-serif;}
/* CUSTOM RADIO & CHECKBOXES

.rad,
.ckb{

}
.rad > input,
.ckb > input{ /* HIDE ORG RADIO & CHECKBOX */
position: absolute;
opacity: 0;

}
/* RADIO & CHECKBOX STYLES */
/* DEFAULT <i> STYLE */

border-radius: 3px;
}
.rad:hover > i{ /* HOVER <i> STYLE */
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 3px #fff;
background: gray;
}
.rad > input:focus + i { /* FOCUS <i> STYLE */
outline: 1px solid blue;
}
.rad > input:checked + i{ /* (RADIO CHECKED) <i> STYLE */
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 3px #fff;
background: orange;
}
/* CHECKBOX */
.ckb > input + i::after{
content: "";
display: block;
height: 12px;
width: 12px;
margin: 2px;
border-radius: inherit;
transition: inherit;
background: gray;
}
.ckb > input:focus + i {
outline: 1px solid blue;
}
.ckb > input:checked + i::after{ /* (RADIO CHECKED) <i> STYLE */
margin-left: 11px;
background: orange;
}
<label class="rad">
<input type="radio" name="rad1" value="a">
<i></i> Radio 1
</label>
<label class="rad">
<input type="radio" name="rad1" value="b" checked>
<i></i> Radio 2
</label>
<br>
<label class="ckb">
<input type="checkbox" name="ckb1" value="a" checked>
<i aria-hidden="true"></i> Checkbox 1
</label>
<label class="ckb">
<input type="checkbox" name="ckb2" value="b">
<i aria-hidden="true"></i> Checkbox 2
</label>
Example:
Heads up! This solution is CSS-only.
I recommend you take advantage of CSS3 to do that, by hidding the by-default input radio button with CSS3 rules:
.options input{
margin:0;padding:0;
-webkit-appearance:none;
-moz-appearance:none;
appearance:none;
}
I just make an example a few days ago.

How to use images for radio-buttons - Gist
You can use CSS for that.
HTML (only for demo, it is customizable)
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="a" id="a" />
<label for="a">a</label>
</div>
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="b" id="b" />
<label for="b">b</label>
</div>
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="c" id="c" />
<label for="c">c</label>
</div>
...
CSS
input[type="radio"] {
display: none;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked + label {
border: 1px solid red;
}
jsFiddle
Keep radio buttons hidden, and on clicking of images, select them using JavaScript and style your image so that it look like selected. Here is the markup -
<div id="radio-button-wrapper">
<span class="image-radio">
<input name="any-name" style="display:none" type="radio"/>
<img src="...">
</span>
<span class="image-radio">
<input name="any-name" style="display:none" type="radio"/>
<img src="...">
</span>
</div>
and JS
$(".image-radio img").click(function(){
$(this).prev().attr('checked',true);
})
CSS
span.image-radio input[type="radio"]:checked + img{
border:1px solid red;
}

Here is a simple jQuery UI solution based on the example here:
http://jqueryui.com/button/#radio
Modified code:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery UI Button - Radios</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css">
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#radio" ).buttonset();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<div id="radio">
<input type="radio" id="radio1" name="radio"><label for="radio1"><img src="image1.gif" /></label>
<input type="radio" id="radio2" name="radio" checked="checked"><label for="radio2"><img src="image2.gif" /></label>
<input type="radio" id="radio3" name="radio"><label for="radio3"><img src="image3.gif" /></label>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
jQueryUI takes care of the image background so you know which button is checked.
Beware: If you want to set a button to checked or unchecked via Javascript, you must call the refresh function:
$('#radio3').prop('checked', true).button("refresh");
Images can be placed in place of radio buttons by using label and span elements.
<div class="customize-radio">
<label>Favourite Smiley</label><br>
<label for="hahaha">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="hahaha">
<span class="haha-img"></span>
HAHAHA
</label>
<label for="kiss">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="kiss">
<span class="kiss-img"></span>
Kiss
</label>
<label for="tongueOut">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="tongueOut">
<span class="tongueout-img"></span>
TongueOut
</label>
</div>
Radio button should be hidden,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio'] {
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
}
Image can be given in the span tag,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio'] ~ span{
cursor: pointer;
width: 27px;
height: 24px;
display: inline-block;
background-size: 27px 24px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.haha-img {
background-image: url('hahabefore.png');
}
.kiss-img{
background-image: url('kissbefore.png');
}
.tongueout-img{
background-image: url('tongueoutbefore.png');
}
To change the image on click of radio button, add checked state to the input tag,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.haha-img{
background-image: url('haha.png');
}
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.kiss-img{
background-image: url('kiss.png');
}
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.tongueout-img{
background-image: url('tongueout.png');
}
If you have any queries, Refer to the following link, As I have taken solution from the below blog,

Don't forget to add a class to your labels and in CSS use that class instead.

.rad,
.ckb{

Example:
Heads up! This solution is CSS-only.
I recommend you take advantage of CSS3 to do that, by hidding the by-default input radio button with CSS3 rules:
.options input{
margin:0;padding:0;
-webkit-appearance:none;
-moz-appearance:none;
appearance:none;
}
I just make an example a few days ago.

How to use images for radio-buttons - Gist
You can use CSS for that.
HTML (only for demo, it is customizable)
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="a" id="a" />
<label for="a">a</label>
</div>
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="b" id="b" />
<label for="b">b</label>
</div>
<div class="button">
<input type="radio" name="a" value="c" id="c" />
<label for="c">c</label>
</div>
...
CSS
input[type="radio"] {
display: none;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked + label {
border: 1px solid red;
}
jsFiddle
Keep radio buttons hidden, and on clicking of images, select them using JavaScript and style your image so that it look like selected. Here is the markup -
<div id="radio-button-wrapper">
<span class="image-radio">
<input name="any-name" style="display:none" type="radio"/>
<img src="...">
</span>
<span class="image-radio">
<input name="any-name" style="display:none" type="radio"/>
<img src="...">
</span>
</div>
and JS
$(".image-radio img").click(function(){
$(this).prev().attr('checked',true);
})
CSS
span.image-radio input[type="radio"]:checked + img{
border:1px solid red;
}

Here is a simple jQuery UI solution based on the example here:
http://jqueryui.com/button/#radio
Modified code:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>jQuery UI Button - Radios</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/themes/smoothness/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.js"></script>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.3/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/resources/demos/style.css">
<script>
$(function() {
$( "#radio" ).buttonset();
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<div id="radio">
<input type="radio" id="radio1" name="radio"><label for="radio1"><img src="image1.gif" /></label>
<input type="radio" id="radio2" name="radio" checked="checked"><label for="radio2"><img src="image2.gif" /></label>
<input type="radio" id="radio3" name="radio"><label for="radio3"><img src="image3.gif" /></label>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
jQueryUI takes care of the image background so you know which button is checked.
Beware: If you want to set a button to checked or unchecked via Javascript, you must call the refresh function:
$('#radio3').prop('checked', true).button("refresh");
Images can be placed in place of radio buttons by using label and span elements.
<div class="customize-radio">
<label>Favourite Smiley</label><br>
<label for="hahaha">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="hahaha">
<span class="haha-img"></span>
HAHAHA
</label>
<label for="kiss">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="kiss">
<span class="kiss-img"></span>
Kiss
</label>
<label for="tongueOut">
<input type="radio" name="smiley" id="tongueOut">
<span class="tongueout-img"></span>
TongueOut
</label>
</div>
Radio button should be hidden,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio'] {
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
}
Image can be given in the span tag,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio'] ~ span{
cursor: pointer;
width: 27px;
height: 24px;
display: inline-block;
background-size: 27px 24px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.haha-img {
background-image: url('hahabefore.png');
}
.kiss-img{
background-image: url('kissbefore.png');
}
.tongueout-img{
background-image: url('tongueoutbefore.png');
}
To change the image on click of radio button, add checked state to the input tag,
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.haha-img{
background-image: url('haha.png');
}
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.kiss-img{
background-image: url('kiss.png');
}
.customize-radio label > input[type = 'radio']:checked ~ span.tongueout-img{
background-image: url('tongueout.png');
}
If you have any queries, Refer to the following link, As I have taken solution from the below blog,
http://frontendsupport.blogspot.com/2018/06/cool-radio-buttons-with-images.html

How do I change the color of radio buttons?

I mean, a radio button itself consists of a round shape and a dot at the center (when the button is selected). What I want to change is the color of both. Can this be done using CSS?
A quick fix would be to overlay the radio button input style using :after, however it's probably a better practice to create your own custom toolkit.
input[type='radio']:after {
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
top: -2px;
left: -1px;
position: relative;
background-color: #d1d3d1;
content: '';
display: inline-block;
visibility: visible;
border: 2px solid white;
}
input[type='radio']:checked:after {
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border-radius: 15px;
top: -2px;
left: -1px;
position: relative;
background-color: #ffa500;
content: '';
display: inline-block;
visibility: visible;
border: 2px solid white;
}
<input type='radio' name="gender"/>
<input type='radio' name="gender"/>
A radio button is a native element specific to each OS/browser. There is no way to change its color/style, unless you want to implement custom images or use a custom Javascript library which includes images (e.g. this - cached link)
As Fred mentioned, there is no way to natively style radio buttons in regards to color, size, etcc. But you can use CSS Pseudo elements to setup an impostor of any given radio button, and style it. Touching on what JamieD said, on how we can use the :after Pseudo element, you can use both :before and :after to achieve a desirable look.
Benefits of this approach:
Style your radio button and also Include a label for content.
Change the outer rim color and/or checked circle to any color you like.
Give it a transparent look with modifications to background color property and/or optional use of the opacity property.
Scale the size of your radio button.
Add various drop shadow properties such as CSS drop shadow inset where needed.
Blend this simple CSS/HTML trick into various Grid systems, such as Bootstrap 3.3.6, so it matches the rest of your Bootstrap components visually.
Explanation of short demo below:
Set up a relative in-line block for each radio button
Hide the native radio button sense there is no way to style it directly.
Style and align the label
Rebuilding CSS content on the :before Pseudo-element to do 2 things - style the outer rim of the radio button and set element to appear first (left of label content). You can learn basic steps on Pseudo-elements here - http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_pseudo_elements.asp
If the radio button is checked, request for label to display CSS content (the styled dot in the radio button) afterwards.
The HTML
<div class="radio-item">
<input type="radio" id="ritema" name="ritem" value="ropt1">
<label for="ritema">Option 1</label>
</div>
<div class="radio-item">
<input type="radio" id="ritemb" name="ritem" value="ropt2">
<label for="ritemb">Option 2</label>
</div>
The CSS
.radio-item {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
padding: 0 6px;
margin: 10px 0 0;
}
.radio-item input[type='radio'] {
display: none;
}
.radio-item label {
color: #666;
font-weight: normal;
}
.radio-item label:before {
content: " ";
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
top: 5px;
margin: 0 5px 0 0;
width: 20px;
height: 20px;
border-radius: 11px;
border: 2px solid #004c97;
background-color: transparent;
}
.radio-item input[type=radio]:checked + label:after {
border-radius: 11px;
width: 12px;
height: 12px;
position: absolute;
top: 9px;
left: 10px;
content: " ";
display: block;
background: #004c97;
}
A short demo to see it in action
In conclusion, no JavaScript, images or batteries required. Pure CSS.
You can use the CSS accent-color property to change the color.
input[type='radio'] {
accent-color: #232323;
}
It works with Chrome/Edge 93+, Firefox 92+, and Safari 15.4+ (Browser support info from caniuse.)
You can achieve customized radio buttons in two pure CSS ways
Via removing standard appearance using CSS appearance and applying custom appearance. Unfortunately this was doesn't work in IE. Demo:
input[type="radio"] {
/* remove standard background appearance */
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
/* create custom radiobutton appearance */
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
padding: 6px;
/* background-color only for content */
background-clip: content-box;
border: 2px solid #bbbbbb;
background-color: #e7e6e7;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* appearance for checked radiobutton */
input[type="radio"]:checked {
background-color: #93e026;
}
/* optional styles, I'm using this for centering radiobuttons */
.flex {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio1" />
<label for="radio1">RadioButton1</label>
</div>
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio2" />
<label for="radio2">RadioButton2</label>
</div>
<div class="flex">
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio3" />
<label for="radio3">RadioButton3</label>
</div>
Via hiding radiobutton and setting custom radiobutton appearance to label's pseudoselector. By the way no need for absolute positioning here (I see absolute positioning in most demos). Demo:
*,
*:before,
*:after {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
input[type="radio"] {
display: none;
}
input[type="radio"]+label:before {
content: "";
/* create custom radiobutton appearance */
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
padding: 6px;
margin-right: 3px;
/* background-color only for content */
background-clip: content-box;
border: 2px solid #bbbbbb;
background-color: #e7e6e7;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* appearance for checked radiobutton */
input[type="radio"]:checked + label:before {
background-color: #93e026;
}
/* optional styles, I'm using this for centering radiobuttons */
label {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio1" />
<label for="radio1">RadioButton1</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio2" />
<label for="radio2">RadioButton2</label>
<input type="radio" name="radio" id="radio3" />
<label for="radio3">RadioButton3</label>
Only if you are targeting webkit-based browsers (Chrome and Safari, maybe you are developing a Chrome WebApp, who knows...), you can use the following:
input[type='radio'] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
}
And then style it as if it were a simple HTML element, for example applying a background image.
Use input[type='radio']:active for when the input is selected, to provide the alternate graphics
Update: As of 2018 you can add the following to support multiple browser vendors:
input[type="radio"] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
}
Try something like this:
#yes{
border:2px solid white;
box-shadow:0 0 0 1px #392;
appearance:none;
border-radius:50%;
width:12px;
height:12px;
background-color:#fff;
transition:all ease-in 0.2s;
}
#yes:checked{
background-color:#392;
}
#no{
border:2px solid white;
box-shadow:0 0 0 1px #932;
appearance:none;
border-radius:50%;
width:12px;
height:12px;
background-color:#fff;
transition:all ease-in 0.2s;
}
#no:checked{
background-color:#932;
}
<input id="yes" type="radio" name="s"><label for="yes">Yes</label></br>
<input id="no" type="radio" name="s"><label for="no">No</label>
There is less of code, it looks better and you don't need to play with :before , :after and position to reach the effect.
you can use the checkbox hack as explained in css tricks
http://css-tricks.com/the-checkbox-hack/
working example of radio button:
http://codepen.io/Angelata/pen/Eypnq
input[type=radio]:checked ~ .check {}
input[type=radio]:checked ~ .check .inside{}

Well to create extra elements we can use :after, :before (so we don’t have to change the HTML that much). Then for radio buttons and checkboxes we can use :checked. There are a few other pseudo elements we can use as well (such as :hover). Using a mixture of these we can create some pretty cool custom forms. check this
I builded another fork of #klewis' code sample to demonstrate some playing with pure css and gradients by using :before/:after pseudo elements and a hidden radio input button.

For those who prefer to start development with a minimal example, here's a simple custom radio button that doesn't depend on label:
[type="radio"] {
visibility: hidden; /* hide default radio button */
/* you may need to adjust margin here, too */
}
[type="radio"]::before { /* create pseudoelement */
border: 2px solid gray; /* thickness, style, color */
height: .9em; /* height adjusts with font */
width: .9em; /* width adjusts with font */
border-radius: 50%; /* make it round */
display: block; /* or flex or inline-block */
content: " "; /* won't display without this */
cursor: pointer; /* appears clickable to mouse users */
visibility: visible; /* reverse the 'hidden' above */
}
[type="radio"]:checked::before { /* selected */
/* add middle dot when selected */
/* slightly bigger second value makes it smooth */
/* even more (e.g., 20% 50%) would make it fuzzy */
background: radial-gradient(gray 36%, transparent 38%);
}
<br>
<input type="radio" name="example" id="one" value="one">
<label for="one">one</label>
<br>
<br>
<input type="radio" name="example" id="two" value="two">
<label for="two">two</label>
Try this css with transition:
Demo
$DarkBrown: #292321;
$Orange: #CC3300;
div {
margin:0 0 0.75em 0;
}
input[type="radio"] {
display:none;
}
input[type="radio"] + label {
color: $DarkBrown;
font-family:Arial, sans-serif;
font-size:14px;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span {
display:inline-block;
width:19px;
height:19px;
margin:-1px 4px 0 0;
vertical-align:middle;
cursor:pointer;
-moz-border-radius: 50%;
border-radius: 50%;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span {
background-color:$DarkBrown;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked + label span{
background-color:$Orange;
}
input[type="radio"] + label span,
input[type="radio"]:checked + label span {
-webkit-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
-o-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
-moz-transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
transition:background-color 0.4s linear;
}

Simple , you can be used accent-color

You should use the accent-color CSS property, which sets the accent color for user-interface controls such as inputs (radio buttons, checkboxes...) or progress bars and it's supported for most modern browsers.
input {
accent-color: red;
}
document.querySelector("input[name=accent-color]").addEventListener("input", () => {
document.documentElement.style.setProperty("--accent-color", event.target.value);
});
:root {
--accent-color: red;
}
input,
progress {
accent-color: var(--accent-color);
}
/* Other styles */
label {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
gap: .625rem;
margin-bottom: .625rem;
}
label:first-child {
font-size: 1.15rem;
font-weight: bold;
}
input {
flex: 0 0 auto;
height: 1.25rem;
width: 1.25rem;
}
input[type="color"] {
width: 3rem;
}
input[type="range"] {
width: 12.5rem;
}
<label>Change the accent color<input name="accent-color" type="color" value="#ff0000"></input></label><br>
<label><input name="radio" type="radio" checked></input>Radio button</label>
<label><input name="radio" type="radio"></input>Another radio button</label>
<label><input name="check" type="checkbox" checked></input>Checkbox</label>
<label><input name="range" type="range"></input>Range input</label>
<label><progress value="50" max="100"></progress>Progress bar</label>
This is not possible by native CSS. You'll have to use background images and some javascript tricks.
As other said, there's no way to achieve this in all browser, so best way of doing so crossbrowser is using javascript unobtrusively. Basically you have to turn your radiobutton into links (fully customizable via CSS). each click on link will be bound to the related radiobox, toggling his state and all the others.
For my use all I wanted to do was change the colour and nothing else, so I've taken the answer from #klewis and changed it to...
Make the radio the same as the browser default (Chrome in my case) using relative % and em instead of fixed px. Caveat: em is based on whatever the font-size of input[type=radio] is, which could be inherited. Adjustments to the values below may be necessary.
Keep accessibility functions (like an outline when focused) of the original radio button by not using display: none; and by applying :before and :after to the original radio instead of the label.
/* make default radio 'invisible' */
input[type=radio] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
}
/* make new radio outer circle */
input[type=radio]:before {
content: " ";
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
width: 0.8em;
height: 0.8em;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 1px solid grey;
background-color: transparent;
}
/* change colour of radio outer circle when checked */
input[type=radio]:checked:before {
border-color: green;
}
/* make new radio inner circle when checked */
input[type=radio]:checked:after {
content: " ";
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 0.55em;
height: 0.55em;
border-radius: 50%;
top: 0.4em;
left: 0.13em;
background: green;
}
`
This Worked for me well,
Simply add css attribute:
input[type="radio"]{accent-color: red;}
Here is the link for resource
The simple way is to use accent-color
The accent-color CSS property sets the accent color for user-interface controls generated by some elements
Browsers that support accent-color currently apply it to the following HTML elements:
<input type="checkbox">
<input type="radio">
<input type="range">
<progress>

You can use accent-color property in css to change background color of both checkbox and radio buttons.
input[type=radio] {
accent-color: red;
}
It may be helpful to bind radio-button to styled label. Futher details in this answer.
A clever way to do it would be to create a separate div with a height and width of -for example- 50px and then a radius of 50px lay this over your radio buttons...
You can embed a span element in the radio input then select a color of your choice to be rendered when a radio input is checked. Check out the example below sourced from w3schools.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
/* The container */
.container {
display: block;
position: relative;
padding-left: 35px;
margin-bottom: 12px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 22px;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
/* Hide the browser's default radio button */
.container input {
position: absolute;
opacity: 0;
cursor: pointer;
}
/* Create a custom radio button */
.checkmark {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 25px;
width: 25px;
background-color: #eee;
border-radius: 50%;
}
/* On mouse-over, add a grey background color */
.container:hover input ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #ccc;
}
/* When the radio button is checked, add a blue background */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #00a80e;
}
/* Create the indicator (the dot/circle - hidden when not checked) */
.checkmark:after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
display: none;
}
/* Show the indicator (dot/circle) when checked */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark:after {
display: block;
}
/* Style the indicator (dot/circle) */
.container .checkmark:after {
top: 9px;
left: 9px;
width: 8px;
height: 8px;
border-radius: 50%;
background: white;
}
</style>
<body>
<h1>Custom Radio Buttons</h1>
<label class="container">One
<input type="radio" checked="checked" name="radio">
<span class="checkmark"></span>
</label>
<label class="container">Two
<input type="radio" name="radio">
<span class="checkmark"></span>

Changing the background color at this code segment below does the trick.
/* When the radio button is checked, add a blue background */
.container input:checked ~ .checkmark {
background-color: #00a80e;
}
Sourced from how to create a custom radio button
If you are using react bootstrap Form.check you could do something like this
HTML
<Form.Check
type="radio"
id="Radio-card"
label={`check me out`}
name="paymentmethod"
value="card"
/>
SCSS
.form-check {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
input[type="radio"] {
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
width: 11px;
height: 11px;
padding: 1px;
background-clip: content-box;
border: 1px solid hotpink;
background-color: white;
border-radius: 50%;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked {
outline: none;
background-color: hotpink;
border: 1px solid hotpink;
}
label {
font-size: 14px;
font-weight: 600;
}
}

How to change checkbox's border style in CSS?

How can I change checkbox (input) border's style? I've put border:1px solid #1e5180 upon it, but in FireFox 3.5, nothing happens!
I suggest using "outline" instead of "border". For example: outline: 1px solid #1e5180.
You should use
-moz-appearance:none;
-webkit-appearance:none;
-o-appearance:none;
Then you get rid of the default checkbox image/style and can style it. Anyway a border will still be there in Firefox
If something happens in any browser I'd be surprised. This is one of those outstanding form elements that browsers tend not to let you style that much, and that people usually try to replace with javascript so they can style/code something to look and act like a checkbox.
You can use box shadows to fake a border:
-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 1px rgba(255,0,0,1);
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 1px rgba(255,0,0,1);
box-shadow: 0px 0px 0px 1px rgba(255,0,0,1);
Here's my version that uses FontAwesome for checkbox ticker, I think FontAwesome is used by almost everybody so it's safe to assume you have it too. Not tested in IE/Edge and I don't think anyone cares.
input[type=checkbox] {
-moz-appearance:none;
-webkit-appearance:none;
-o-appearance:none;
outline: none;
content: none;
}
input[type=checkbox]:before {
font-family: "FontAwesome";
content: "\f00c";
font-size: 15px;
color: transparent !important;
background: #fef2e0;
display: block;
width: 15px;
height: 15px;
border: 1px solid black;
margin-right: 7px;
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked:before {
color: black !important;

For Firefox, Chrome and Safari, nothing happens.
For IE the border is applied outside the checkbox (not as part of the checkbox), and the "fancy" shading effect in the checkbox is gone (displayed as an oldfashioned checkbox).
For Opera the border style is actually applying the border on the checkbox element.
Opera also handles other stylings on the checkbox better than other browsers: color is applied as the color of the tick, background-color is applied as background color inside the checkbox (IE applies the background as if the checkbox was inside a <div> with background)).
Conclusion
The easiest solution is to wrap the checkbox inside a <div> like others have suggested.
If you want to completely control the appearance you will have to go with the advanced image/javascript approach, also meantiond by others.
I'm outdated I know.. But a little workaround would be to put your checkbox inside a label tag, then style the label with a border:
<label class='hasborder'><input type='checkbox' /></label>
then style the label:
.hasborder { border:1px solid #F00; }
Styling checkboxes (and many other input elements for that mater) is not really possible with pure css if you want to drastically change the visual appearance.
Your best bet is to implement something like jqTransform does which actually replaces you inputs with images and applies javascript behaviour to it to mimic a checkbox (or other element for that matter)
No, you still can't style the checkbox itself, but I (finally) figured out how to style an illusion while keeping the functionality of clicking a checkbox. It means that you can toggle it even if the cursor isn't perfectly still without risking selecting text or triggering drag-and-drop!
The example is using a span "button" as well as some text in a label, but it gives you the idea of how you can make the checkbox invisible and draw anything behind it.
This solution probably also fits radio buttons.
The following works in IE9, FF30.0 and Chrome 40.0.2214.91 and is just a basic example. You can still use it in combination with background images and pseudo-elements.

label {
display: inline-block;
position: relative; /* needed for checkbox absolute positioning */
background-color: #eee;
padding: .5rem;
border: 1px solid #000;
border-radius: .375rem;
font-family: "Courier New";
font-size: 1rem;
line-height: 1rem;
}
label > input[type="checkbox"] {
display: block;
position: absolute; /* remove it from the flow */
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: -.5rem; /* negative the padding of label to cover the "button" */
cursor: pointer;
opacity: 0; /* make it transparent */
z-index: 666; /* place it on top of everything else */
}
label > input[type="checkbox"] + span {
display: inline-block;
width: 1rem;
height: 1rem;
border: 1px solid #000;
margin-right: .5rem;
}
label > input[type="checkbox"]:checked + span {
background-color: #666;
}

Here is a simple way (to use before or after pseudo elements / classes):
input[type=checkbox] {
position: relative;
}
input[type=checkbox]:after {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
/* Above three lines allow the checkbox:after position at checkbox's position */
content: '';
width: 32px;
height: 32px;
z-index: 1; /* This allows the after overlap the checkbox */
/* Anything you want */
}
It's actually just two things you have to do
outline: 1px solid #63DDCF
border: none !important;
put it in a div and add border to the div
<div style="border-style: solid;width:13px">
<input type="checkbox" name="mycheck" style="margin:0;padding:0;">
</input>
</div>
